Manage resource mailbox in Exchange Online

You can manage resource mailboxes, like room and equipment mailboxes, in your Exchange Online organization. Room mailboxes are tied to physical locations (e.g., conference rooms), allowing users to reserve them for meetings. Equipment mailboxes, on the other hand, are for non-location-specific resources (e.g., laptops, projectors), making it easy for users to reserve these items for meetings. The steps mentioned in the table below can be used to manage resource mailboxes in Exchange Online.

Steps to manage resource mailboxes in Exchange Online using the native admin center

To create a resource mailbox:

  1. Log in to the EAC and navigate to Recipients > Resources.
  2. Click Add a resource and follow the Resource Setup, General Information, Booking options, and Review resource instructions.
  3. Click Create.

To edit a resource mailbox:

  1. Select the resource you want to edit.
  2. In the Room Mailbox pane, you can update the resource details from the General, Booking, Delegation, and Others tabs.
